Two Weeks Until Christmas

Tizz two weeks before christmas
And all is not well
No work and no way to get there
And no more nick-nacks to sell

As a friend i'm disappointing
As a father I must suck
Tizz two weeks before christmas
Of course Im down on my luck

As for money Im owed plenty
Im quite generous you see
But to collect any at christmas 
Well its just not meant to be

Down and out again at christmas
My kids won't hear slaybells ring
Just two short weeks till christmas
Loser seems to be my thing
